  • Bills' Taron Johnson: Misses Thursday's practice

    Johnson sat out Thursday's practice session due to a sore quad, Alec White of the Bills' official site reports. Coach Sean McDermott called it more of a "preventative measure" in his comments Thursday. With the team planning on resting most of its starters in the preseason finale Saturday, the next time we see the versatile Johnson may be in Week 1 against the Cardinals.

  • Bills' Taron Johnson: Career-best tackle total

    Johnson played in all 17 regular-season games for the Bills in 2023, posting 98 total tackles, including 1.0 sacks, eight passes defensed, three forced fumbles and one fumble recovery. Johnson failed to record an interception for the first time since the 2019 season, but that's splitting hairs when you consider the compilation of other stats as well as the career-high tackle total. He finished in the top 10 among cornerbacks in most scoring systems, and his versatility (he can play cornerback or safety as well as cover the slot) has proven key for a Buffalo defense that finished fourth in points allowed and ninth in yards allowed this season.
